Railroad View: Excellent View! All rooms in this motel will have a railroad view. Railroad tracks are just across the street. Across from the motel is a town park, named "Railroad Park" located along the mainline. A fenced in pedestrian bridge is also across from the motel and can be used for photos and video of passing trains.

Railroads past Hotel: Union Pacific Railroad. UP mainline, expect 50+ trains during a 24-hour period. This rail line consists of traffic between North Platte, Cheyenne and points west. A majority of traffic consists of intermodal, automobiles, merchandise and grain trains. This is not the busy coal train route. Most coal trains join this mainline a couple miles east of here.

Notes: This is the closest railfan motel to North Platte, NE.

Comments:This is an older style Motor Inn. Unpaved parking lot. I confirmed the location & view of the railroad, but I have not stayed here. This motel has not been rated by RailfanMotels.com

Photo Comment: The Google satellite view shows the Park Motel circled in yellow. The Union Pacific Railroad mainline is marked in red, you can see a train as well in the photo. The blue circle marks the location of the pedestrian bridge. The bridge is useful for taking photographs and video of passing trains.
